Prosthetic Rehabilitation Of Severely Resorbed Ridges With A Lingualized Occlusal Scheme: A Clinical Case Report

The long-term success of complete denture therapy is critically dependent on the occlusal scheme provided. Occlusion governs retention, stability, and patient comfort, especially in cases with compromised ridges. Among the many occlusal concepts proposed, lingualized occlusion has gained significant acceptance because of its ability to combine esthetics with functional efficiency while minimizing lateral interferences. This article presents a clinical case report of a completely edentulous patient rehabilitated with maxillary and mandibular complete dentures fabricated using the lingualized occlusion concept.
